UMM - Possible Problems . Vuskys oil pressure has seemed a tad high lately especially when cold whereby it hit 70psi - even driving when hot it was above 60psi at 4000RPM and above . Suspect was either the gauge telling porkies or the relieve valve .… I have a spare 0 to 60PSI full faced gauge here but sadly no light fitting - still thats sortable which i did. ( tother gauge was a 0 to 100 ) Plumbed it in and sure enough it hit 70PSI ( IE. Off the scale ?? ) meaning two gauges saying the same thing - See

Off the scale ?? ) meaning two gauges saying the same thing - Seeing as the relieve valves set at 60PSI that shouldnt be possible. Oil filters the older paper type not a spin on which can cause this so i changed the valve for a second hand one i found after cleaning it out . Not tested it cold yet but pressure has dropped to more normal levels so its all rather promising ?
